Today on Sojourner Truth:

Donald Trump's administration has ramped up its threats against Iran, saying that if Iran threatens the U.S. ever again, Iran will suffer consequences which have never been suffered throughout history. Is this a distraction for Trump from his domestic troubles or is he along with Israel angling for a military strike against Iran? Our guest is Middle East expert Phyllis Bennis.

An update about conditions on the ground in Puerto Rico and what the Puerto Rican people want. We speak with Francisco Santiago, co-president of the Hostosian National Independence Movement.

Hundreds of thousands of protesters greeted Trump on his visit to the United Kingdom. We speak with London-based Sara Calloway with Women of Color/Global Womens Strike and a volunteer with the Momentum Movement, one of the speakers at the protest rally.

Today on our weekly Sojourner Truth roundtable:

The realignment of superpowers and the culture wars that were underscored and pushed forward in Trumps recent trip to Europe. From NATO to his trip to the U.K., to his secret meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, to the Trump-Putin embrace of Israels security concerns.

All this in the backdrop of the Trump-initiated trade wars with traditional U.S. allies including Canada, the European Union, Mexico " as well as the big fish of China. Are his policies pushing Europe closer to Asia? What other fallout is happening?

And then there is his bid to be white supremacist in chief. Not only in the U.S., but globally, from his comments about immigration being no good for the culture of Europe to his continued trashing of immigrants to the U.S. from south of the border. To the thousands of children separated at the border and not yet reunited with their families.

Also, his attacks on Congresswoman Maxine Waters, the general fallout resulting from his anti-immigrant sentiment and making overt racism a badge of honor among some.

We also discuss the spate of white people calling the police on Black people for no good reason except they are living while Black. All this as the white supremacist organizations that organized the Charlottesville, Virginia gathering last year prepare to hold a rally outside the White House.

Our panelists are Jackie Goldberg; Chicano liberation, environmental campaigner and author Bill Gallegos and Dr. Gerald Horne.
